Target has just announced that from today through 12/20 they will offer free shipping sitewide on all orders!
Of course REDcard holders get free shipping and 5% off all year-round and now it’s one of the best methods of manufactured spending out there. I’m even hearing about people using 9K Avios to fly from NYC to Baltimore, Boston, Cleveland, Detroit, or Pittsburgh to pickup cards where they can be activated or refiled nationwide.
I’m a little disturbed if people have that much time on their hands to fly around the US for the red cards.
@Ilanit: Agreed.
@Ilanit: Agreed, you’re definitely disturbed.
@Ilanit: business trip
If they are flying to other states to pick up cards they should not be playing these games since they seem clueless.
I don’t understand why you guys think it’s so crazy (or “clueless”) to fly to another state for it. I’m not saying I would do it, but if you have the time (you can probably fly there and back the same day), why not. With this card you can VERY easily earn back the miles you spend on the ticket, and you can even get some for your friends and have them chip in.
HelpMe?? Is that you!?
Is there a link that says officially what states are offering REDcard?
@Dan G: Read the post.
For a shortcut, here you go…
https://amex.serve.com/prepaidredcard/?ref=sr_shorturl_prepaidredcard#store-locator
If I get a redcard than come back to NY, can i fill it here?
@josh:
Yes.
thanks Dan!,, Last question. Can I have someone pick this up for me and mail it to me-or whoever buys it, its :attached” to them?
If you can order it online, why fly anywhere to get it???
So I get how great it is to have a prepaid card but if you buy $6000 worth of prepiad cards with your amex, now you havent technically lost $6000 but you still have to pay your amex bill at the end of the month.
So only rich people with extra cash on hand can do this….
I am very happy with my red card credit card. Love target!
how do you send money from the redcard to your checking account? I am missing something somewhere and cannot find that option. I linked a checking account but can only go one way and load the redcard from the checking and not the other way.
thank you very much
